“ Until the goal we were much better, Sporting was uneasy”

Vasco Botelho da Costa, coach of Moreirense, in press conference, in the aftermath of defeat against Sporting (0-1), in play of the 11th journey of the I League, played on Saturday night. 

Analysis: “From a defensive point of view, we collectively managed to play well. In terms of positioning we have well conditioned the Sporting game. The plan didn't go so well was offensive. We weren't as dangerous as we would have been. It wasn't usually one of those games where we got crushed. Sporting deserved a win. Our team was quiet and by the time we had the goal, we were much better, Sporting was uneasy. The game ends up being solved in a bid by a great player (Luis Suárez)”. 

Moreirense left good replica: “If we can win all the games against all the other teams that do not ‘the big ones’ we will go to Europe and that will be history in Moreirense. I'm glad we're playing the stadiums of the teams that fight for the title with personality. The moment will come when the victories will appear. I look at my growth very quietly. We must continue to make mistakes in order for competence to bear fruit. We must have more ambition and more personality, because in games like today, the difference was not so great.”.
